How are you guys dealing with rejection? It's been nonstop. I've applied to over 2K jobs and I'm well qualified and I've been barely passing the second interview. No feedback just straight rejection. Depression started to kick in.

I'm trying to find the time and energy to continue pursuing hobbies and things that make me happy. It's hard to do with the stress of being out of work hanging on me 24/7, but I know if I don't continue working out, reading and doing things to distract myself from it, it's only going to get worse and I'm going to get more depressed.

Companies are very unlikely to give any feedback, mostly for legal reasons. They don't want to say something that can be misconstrued and turned into a lawsuit. Plus, from their standpoint if they're not going to be working with you they owe you nothing. Anyway, if you're getting interviews your resume must be working and you must come off as a strong candidate. Perhaps you could work on your interviewing technique. But it's also just true that it's always a competition, and you could just be getting edged out by someone else. Just have to stay persistent and know that next time you'll edge someone else out.
